Anti-Racist System Audit in MCPS
During the July 14, 2020 business meeting of the Montgomery County Board of Education, as an introduction to the continuing discussion on the district’s recovery of education plans, Superintendent Jack Smith and Deputy Superintendent Monifa McKnight provided an overview of a new system effort to combat racism. The Anti-Racist System Audit will focus on evaluating the current climate at MCPS, identifying the needs and recommending actions required to combat racism. Dr. McKnight reviewed specific components of the project, which include: conducting a workforce diversity analysis; evaluating work conditions and reviewing progress and barriers; reviewing the K–12 equity curriculum, the equity achievement framework and progress made in this area; focusing on community relations and engagement and evaluating school cultures. The audit also will include data analysis, an assessment of student learning, the impact of COVID-19, and the progress made with students of color and focus students. MCPS leadership is committed to engaging the MCPS community, students, and staff to ensure that the action plan is both strategic and purposeful. Ultimately, the audit will help inform a pathway to identify and address the concerns and issues in all of these areas. It is anticipated that the findings and recommendations will be presented to the Board in October 2020.
